Denmark is a country in northern Europe.
According to wikitravel hitchhiking is legal in Denmark except on highways. Most drivers speak English, not German. There was a hitch hiking project done in 2006 called The Search for Danish Mentality. As a follow-up the same organization, MS is running another project this year called The Search for the Commons
When hitching on slip roads to the highway, I found people more easily stopped if you were at the bottom of the slip road than at the top of the slip road.
Hamburg to Copenhagen
From Hamburg to Copenhagen you can hitch to the ferry at Puttgarden, and get a ride straight to Copenhagen. If you ask the people after they paid the ticket you can cross for free (and save 7 euros). Tickets are per vehicle not person.
From Denmark Going South
From Jutland Hitch you self a ride to Padborg, in south Jutland just before the German border. Here you'll find the countrys largest truckstop, if not ask around. Most trucks leaving from Denmark stops here. With a little luck you'll find someone going to most destinations in Europe. Ask the drivers while they are getting ready, filling-up on gas or walking from the diner to their car.
From Sealand Hitch you self a ride to Gedser witch is connected by ferry to Rostock, Germany, or Rødbyhavn which is connected by ferry to Puttgarden, Germany. A car-ticket for the ferry includes up to 9 persons so it should by possible to get a free ride over and maybe further.
